Time to bang the drumstick slowly: RIP, Larry
By adamg on Fri, 02/16/2018 - 8:59pm
Johanna Griffiths reports Larry the Turkey died tonight as he lived: Challenging a vehicle at the intersection of VFW Parkway and Baker Street.
According to my husband, a cop was there around 7:15 removing his body.
Confirmation comes from Derek Rubinoff, who at 6:50 p.m. may have been one of the last to see Larry still alive before his date with destiny - and the grill of whatever vehicle cut him down in his prime. Upon hearing of Larry's leaving, Rubinoff returned to the intersection and saw his now inert body on the median.

No, he's stunned!
You stunned him just as he was waking up!
Sorryyy....
he is now an ex turkey.
He's pining...
Pining for the Arbs.
The turkey free arbs
It's funny it's never occurred to me,but I don't think I've ever seen turkeys in the arboretum.
Coyotes yes,Deer yes,homeless people,and drug dealers fy8but not turkeys.
I wonder what the staff does to keep them from establishing a presence on the premises.
Then again maybe it's a question I don't want to ask.
Savoury Turkey
I should have savoured the moment. Little did I know it would be his last.
Godspeed, Larry
Godspeed.
R.I.P Larry
RIP Larry, I'll be there tomorrow to add a bouquet of Cranberries and Sage to your growing memorial.
In memoriam: Larry takes a stand
Textbook Masshole driving
All of the drivers backed up behind Larry are following too closely.
If they’d given themselves more space they could have easily driven around him.
RIP, Larry. We hardly knew ye.
I meant to ask you how to
I meant to ask you how to stop that car
I always meant to ask you about the war
And what you saw across a street too far
Did it leave a scar
Or how you navigated with wings of fire and steel
Up where heaven had no more secrets to conceal
And still you found the ground beneath a wheel
How did it feel
Bang the drum slowly play the pipe lowly
To dust be returning from dust we begin
Bang the drum slowly I'll speak of things holy
Above and below me world without end
I meant to ask you how when everything seemed lost
And your fate was in a game of dice they tossed
There was still that line that you would never cross
At any cost
I meant to ask you how you lived what you believed
With nothing but your heart up your sleeve
And if you ever really were deceived
By the likes of me
Bang the drum slowly play the pipe lowly
To dust be returning from dust we begin
Bang the drum slowly I'll speak of things holy
Above and below me world without end
Gone now is the day and gone the sun
There is peace tonight your story done
But the songs of my life will still be sung
By the light of the moon you hung
I meant to ask you how to forage that field
I meant to wish you well
And be the one beside you when you fell
Could you tell
Bang the drum slowly play the pipe lowly
To dust be returning from dust we begin
Bang the drum slowly I'll speak of things holy
Above and below me world without end

PRAY, LOVE, REMEMBER
Let’s all raise a toast to bold Larry:
He of avian eyeball most hairy.
Mean as any fishwife!
I'll salute your fierce life
Eating bread stuffing made with rosemary.

So... Was he delivered?
Turkey loses game of chicken
I'd say RIP, but given how he lived I doubt it's possible.
Why did the turkey cross the road?
Why did the turkey cross the road?
To not get to the other side.
As sad as it sounds......
I say there is a good chance someone threw out some poison to the poor prick.
I've stared Larry in the eyes on more than one occasion, If I had to guess, he was elderly and on his last legs as it is, so hopefully he died in his sleep.
BOLO
It was broadcasted over BAPERN last night:
